The Relationship Between the Lack of AT-Ⅲ, PC, PS Activity and PICC-related Thrombosis
Central Venous Catheter ThrombosisPICC related venous thrombosis (PICC-RVT) is one of the common complications of PICC and the main cause of unplanned extubation. Effectively identifying the risk of PICC-RVT in patients and preventing PICC-RVT are of great clinical significance. There are many studies on the risk factors of VTE at home and abroad, and there are also many studies on the risk assessment of PICC catheter-related thrombosis, mostly focusing on sociodemographic data, comorbidities, and intubation related factors, while the research on laboratory related indicators is limited It involves D-dimer, white blood cell count (WBC), platelet count (PLT), etc., but its specificity or positive predictive value is not high, and there is no reliable biomarker report. Studies have shown that the decrease or lack of AT-Ⅲ, PC, PS activity is one of the mechanisms of hypercoagulable state in patients with cancer, and may be a biomarker of thrombosis. Many retrospective studies have also shown that the activities of AT-Ⅲ, PC, and PS are related to the occurrence and recurrence of VTE and DVT. The pathogenesis is mainly anticoagulant protein defect or decreased expression. However, when PICC is implanted in patients with AT-Ⅲ, PC and PS activity defects, whether PICC indwelling will become a predisposing factor of thrombosis is not yet known. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to understand the rate of anticoagulant protein deficiency in patients with tumor PICC-RVT, and to prospectively explore the correlation between the lack of AT-Ⅲ, PC, and PS activities and PICC-RVT, and to provide targeted preventive interventions for PICC-RVT patients Scientific basis.
Biological Factors Associated With Subclinical Valvular Thrombosis
Aortic StenosisA prospective, multicentric cohort study including 166 patients with symptomatic aortic stenosis treated with transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). - The main objective is to determine whether the high residual platelet reactivity rates in patients undergoing TAVI is associated with the occurrence of clinical and / or subclinical prosthetic valve thrombosis measured by echocardiography and multi-slice computerized tomography
Risk Prediction of Venous Thromboembolism in Critically Ill
Venous ThrombosisCritical IllnessIntroduction: Venous thromboembolism (VTE), including both deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, is a frequent cause of morbidity and mortality. The population of critically ill patients is a heterogeneous group of patients with an overall high average risk of developing VTE. No prognostic model has been developed for estimation of this risk specifically in critically ill patients. The aim is to construct and validate a risk assessment model for predicting the risk of in-hospital VTE in critically ill patients. Methods: In the first phase of the study we will create a prognostic model based on a derivation cohort of critically ill patients who were acutely admitted to the intensive care unit. A point-based clinical prediction model will be created using backward stepwise regression analysis from a selection of predefined candidate predictors. Model performance, discrimination and calibration will be evaluated, and the model will be internally validated by bootstrapping. In the second phase of the study, external validation will be performed in an independent cohort, and additionally model performance will be compared with performance of existing VTE risk prediction models derived from, and applied to, general medical patients. Dissemination: This protocol will be published online. The results will be reported according to the Transparent Reporting of multivariate prediction models for Individual Prognosis Or Diagnosis (TRIPOD) statement, and submitted to a peer-reviewed journal for publication.
Thromboprophylaxis in Patients Undergoing Orthopedic Surgeries; Using Propensity Score Matching...
ThrombosisDeep Vein Thrombosis1 moreVenous thromboembolism (VTE), including deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), is a common post-operative complication. The necessity for anticoagulant therapy after orthopedic surgeries is widely understood, but treatment administration patterns in the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) after orthopedic surgeries during the hospital stay have yet to be examined. The main objective of this study is to perform a comparative effectiveness review examining the benefits and harms associated with venous thromboembolism prophylaxis in patients undergoing orthopedic surgeries. It is around efficacy and safety evaluation of using anticoagulant for thromboprophylaxis in patients undergoing orthopedic surgeries taking into the account the reliable selection of patients most benefit. The aims of this study is to analyze patient records in teaching hospitals database of our country (including: Hanoi Medical University, Bach Mai Hospital, Cho Ray Hospital, Viet Duc University Hospital) and compare the outcomes and costs between different types of anticoagulant medications that were prescribed for the prevention of VTE following orthopedic surgeries. This analysis will assess and quantify the outcomes, resource utilization, and cost of care for patients receiving rivaroxaban or enoxaparin. The outcomes of interest include the occurence of DVT and PE, rates of major bleeds, medical resource utilization, and total costs (medical plus pharmacy).

Mini-laparotomy Versus Mini Lumbotomy
Abdominal Aortic AneurysmsAbdominal Aortic ThrombosisThis study aims to compare the results of two mini invasive surgical approaches in abdominal aortic surgery: mini lumbotomy with retroperitoneal approach versus mini laparotomy with transperitoneal approach. Respiratory and renal functions and recovery of intestinal transit will be assessed after 30 days. The secondary purpose of this study is to assess the life quality and morbi-mortality at 30 days, as well as at 6 and 12 months.

Deep Vein ThrombosisDeep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a common complication of surgery, which could result in pulmonary embolism (PE). PE is a serious and potentially life-threatening syndrome. The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of laparoscopic versus open surgeries on the incidence of postoperative DVT in patients with gastrointestinal malignancy
Evaluating the Role of Thrombin in Saphenous Vein Graft Failure After Heart Bypass Surgery
Coronary Artery BypassThrombosisHeart bypass surgery, also known as coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, creates a detour around the blocked part of a heart artery to restore blood supply to the heart muscle. The saphenous vein, located along the inside of the leg, is commonly used to create the bypass in a CABG surgery. An abnormal increase in the blood clotting protein thrombin may cause the saphenous vein graft to close up and eventually fail. This study will evaluate the relationship between thrombin levels and saphenous vein graft failures in people undergoing a CABG procedure.
Long-Term Safety of Drug Eluting Stents in the "Real World" (FReIburger STent Registry)
Stent ThrombosisThe FReIburger STent Registry (FRIST) is designed to determine the long term safety and efficacy of Drug Eluting Stents (DES) in a "real-world" patient population requiring stent implantation. FRIST included patients treated with DES and bare-metal stents (BMS) in the University Hospital of Freiburg, Germany, according to a non-restrictive inclusion criterion, in which virtually all consecutive patient subsets were considered eligible.
